α-Humulene
α-Humulene, a sesquiterpene isolated from Salvia officinalis essential oil, exhibits antitumor and anti-inflammatory properties. Its mechanisms involve suppressing tumor cell proliferation and modulating inflammatory pathways by inhibiting TNF-α production and downregulating COX-2 and iNOS expression, as demonstrated in various in vitro and in vivo research models.
